Methods Cell Source and Culture-IL 2-producing and-nonproducing lines of EL4 cells have been described'(8). They were maintained in stationary suspension culture in RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with 2 mM glutamine and 5% heat-inactivated fetal calf serum. Phorbol Ester Treatment-Cells (1-3 X 10') were incubated with PES, usually in stationary suspension culture. After incubation, cells were poured from the flasks and those which had adhered to the plastic as a result of PE exposure were scraped from the surface with a rubber policeman. For short time periods of treatment, cells were maintained in suspension cultured by stirring. PES were added from solutions prepared fresh daily from 1-mM stocks kept in ethanol at-20" C. Final ethanol concentrations in the medium never exceeded 0.1% and did not affect protein kinase activity when added to the intact cells or when added directly to the reaction mixture. Cell viability, as measured by trypan blue dye exclusion, was unaffected by the PE or ethanol concentrations used under the incubation conditions.Cell Rupture and Fractionation-Following incubation with PE, cells were washed three times with RPMI 1640 medium. Washed EL4 cells were ruptured in 1-2 ml of homogenization buffer (20 m~ Tris, pH 7.5, 0.33 M sucrose, 2 m~ EDTA, 0.5 mM EGTA, and 2 mM PMSF) with 30 strokes in a Dounce homogenizer fitted with a tight glass pestle. Cytosol fractions were prepared by centrifuging for 60 min at 105,000 X g. Protein was determined by the method of Lowry et al.(34), using bovine serum albumin as a standard.
